Mitski Dead Women Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Would you have liked me better if I'd died
So you could tell my story the way it ought to be?
You'd find my parents and ask to see my things
Rifle through it all, fill the blanks with what you need

[Chorus]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do, do, do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do-do

[Verse 2]
If I'd died willing, you'd have taken it nice
If I'd sewn rocks in a dress, gone with grace into a lake
But since I'm alive, you'll have to break in as I sleep
When you find my love beside me
Choke him dead for havin' me [Chorus]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do, do

[Verse 3]
While I dream of flying, stab me twenty-seven times
Ransack the house for what you'll auction, what you'll keep
Then embalm me up 'cause you're hosting the viewing
Saying, "She gave her life so we could have her in our dreams"
"She gave her life so we could f*ck her as we please"

[Chorus]
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do, do, do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do-do
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Do, do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
